Abstract
Inverted papilloma is a rare benign tumour of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Although it is included in class of benign tumour, it has strong potential for destruction and has a tendency to recur with incomplete resection. It has ability for malignant transformation to squamous cell carcinoma. Here we present a case of an inverted papilloma originating in a rare location i.e. middle turbinate. This report has the objective of emphasizing on the need for debulking of the tumour intraoperatively and then decide on appropriate approach.
